    Hi,

    How can I increase the height of the listing header image? And decrease the title font size?

    This is how they looked in my GD V1 site:

    http://wordpressmu-180849-756531.cloudwaysapps.com/menjar-i-beure/a-taula/el-depor/

    And I would like to have the same or higher height and font size in my GD V2 site:

    https://inforoses.com/menjar-i-beure/a-casa/el-depor/

    Can you help?

    I look forward to your reply.

    Thank you very much for your attention.

    Best regards.

    If you want to control the dimensions of images or have perfect control over text and style then you are talking about customizing which is outside of support.

    Your site is already customized on the Detail page with custom template code and inline styles.

    You will need to edit those style or add new ones to change the site display.

    For example, this is controlling the heading:

    
    
    
    #wpapps-sd div.geodir-post-title h2, div.geodir-post-title h2 a {
        pointer-events: none;
        color: #757575!important;
        font-size: 2em;
        font-weight: 500;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0 0 0 0;
    }
    

    The image height is set in the theme and is a theme feature. This is an example of the theme code:

    
    
    
    @media (max-width: 1280px) and (min-width: 768px) {
        .sd.single.geodir-page .featured-area, .sd.sd-preview .featured-area {
        height: 60vh;
         }
    }
    

    There are many rules like that inside the theme css. They need to be overridden one by one with new values if you want to change them.

    You can do something like:

    
    
    
    .sd.single.geodir-page .featured-area, .sd.sd-preview .featured-area {
        height: 60vh!important;
         }
    

    But this is a shortcut and from a ‘design perspective’ will effectively break the theme because it will override other rules that are meant to keep the site responsive, to look different on different screen sizes).

    Many rules should be edited to change that featured area height correctly. We provide the theme CSS and plugin layout with default settings and overriding it is a customization.

    All of the code above came from your own site.

    To customize it you need to use the inspector to create custom CSS, edit the code in your template, get a theme builder, or hire someone to do it for you.

    Hi Alex,

    Thank you very much for your detailed reply.

    Unfortunately, my knowledge of CSS is close to zero and I do not really have the time neither the will to learn it 🙂

    By the way, I think that I am missing something important about GD V2 and Builders. Could I use a Builder plugin to build the GD Detail page? Are there some examples available?

    I look forward to your reply.

    Thank you very much once again for your help.

    Best regards.

    Hi Alex,

    Thank you very much for your reply.

    I read several times the documentation about builders but I am not yet getting it.

    All what you said here about customizing the details I asked for, can be done with a builder without knowing and touching CSS?

    I am a Divi user and I do not see how this could be possible unless GD elements would be Divi modules.

    I did not want to use Divi in my site because I started the site with Divi years ago and then I decided to switch to Supreme Directory theme with Divi and finally to Supreme Directory standalone because I felt that Divi was slowing the site and giving many compatibility problems with GD V1. Also, I noticed that GD team was not really a Divi fan. :-). I also tried Beaver Builder but finally I was planning to switch to Elementor in a near future. In the meantime I also found Oxygen, which seems to be a very interesting concept, although not suitable for my limited technical knowdledge.

    Anyway, I see that I have no other option but to try a builder as soon as possible, and I will do with Divi, which is the builder I have more experience with, using a clone of my GD V2 site as staging. I will do it as soon as I will have solved most if not all the many problems and details after the GD V1 to GD V2 conversion.

    I look forward to your reply.

    Thank you very much once again for your help.

    Best regards.

    A builder will certainly not solve all problems, no matter which one you choose. Choose the one that is right for the task and that you like. 🙂
